Pros: Phone is exactly what I hoped for - reliable, easy to use, good call quality, relatively fast. I got it as a first phone for my daughter. Plenty of oomph and features for a tween and still cheap enough on the pocket that if she loses or breaks it you aren't out a $600 iPhone!

Cons: Picks up fingerprints like it's a magnet! Hopefully I will solve that with a screen protector. Also the phone is entirely plastic, so buy a good rugged case to protect it from drops. The volume almost can be to loud - some concern about kid using earphones with this phone - it is really loud! Took one egg for the plastic feel and the screen being a fingerprint magnet.

Overall Review: Was supposed to be 4-7 business days for shipping - actually didn't even leave the warehouse until the 7th day! Then it got delayed - all total it took 3 weeks to show up! I know it's a bit out of Neweggs control, but I have never had that issue with any other Newegg orders in the past.

Pros: Easy to hold.

Cons: Weak weak weak motor. Slightest pressure bogs it down to useless.

Overall Review: This might work for very small dogs or cats... something with very thin nails. We tried it on our big dogs 80+ lbs. and it does not have enough power to do anything usefull. Returned to stor day after we bought it.

Pros: -cheap price -Windows phone operating system works very well. Less glitches than my android phones. -Windows account log in so it synch's with other Windows stuff well.

Cons: -all plastic construction -lowish resolution camera -not as many apps as IOS or android

Overall Review: So I purchased on 02/28/14 as a first phone for my teenage daughter - figured if she lost or broke it I was only out $100 vs. a $500+ flagship phone. It honestly worked better than I expected and the Windows operating system had a lot less issues than android and apple over the same period of ownership. So all in all a good first phone for a kid. Only day to day drawback was the camera quality is not very good. Flash forward to 05/02/15 (warranty expired of course) and now the phone won't charge. Looked online and it is a common problem with no clear solution. I tried a new battery ($40) and as long as the batter had charged it worked, but one the charge ran out it was back to not charging. I plug it in and it tries to turn on then buzzes and turns off without charging. Tried various chargers with same results. So long story short - not a bad starter phone, but don't expect it to last. On the plus side you can pick them up for $50 or less now, so even buying 1 a year it would take several years to equal a more expensive flagship phone.

Pros: Nice size in hand and pocket, good processor speed, nice screen. Great battery life! Wi-Fi calling, can multitask even on phone calls.

Cons: Physical home button to easy to push by mistake, ear speaker can distort at mid-high volumes when using as a phone. No mass storage mode only connect as media device or camera modes. Camera quality sucks.... sorry no sugar coating that one.

Overall Review: The phone itself works well and has a lot of bang for the buck. The main issue I had with the phone was it had a hard time switching between LTE, WCDMA, and GSM. When it was connected to LTE network it worked great, but then when it tried to drop to 4G it would not make the jump correctly and would drop all the way to Edge (2G). I had to set it to only connect to WCDMA/GSM, which sets it to primarily 4G - once I did that it was very stable. The other main issue I have is the physical home button is very easy to hit by mistake which then kicks you out of what you are doing. Also have to be careful with it in your pocket! As mentioned the camera quality is not great and is kind of clunky to use - if you take a lot of phone pictures this is not the phone for you. On the plus side you get a quad core processor, that can multitask very well, and great battery life. I can read books, play games, stream music, and make calls all day long and the battery is generally above 20% when I plug it in to go to bed. Most issues with the phone can be solved by googling the problem and finding out what settings to change. Most of the issues are specific to Samsung android phones in particular, and there are some annoying T-Mobil things but I am not docking the phone for T-Mobile's issues.

Pros: Great signal, looks cool.

Cons: The Linksys firmware is useless!

Overall Review: Got this for a good deal on NewEgg ($49.99 w/ free shipping), and decided to give it a whirl. After reading all the reviews and other info on other sites I went into this planning on flashing it with the new TomatoUSB firmware. One of my main goals was to set up my 2T hard drive as a network/media share between my desktop computer and my media player in my living room. I tried messing around with the LinkSys firmware and and after a couple of hours gave up on it and loaded the TomatoUSB firmware. Tomato loaded fast, and once I plugged in my drive it showed up no problem.

Pros: Long easy reach - works real well for mini-vans. Washable covers.

Cons: Using only water leaves a small amount of streaking.... but not much! Took one star since they advertise it as working with only a little water.

Overall Review: I hated doing the front windows on our cars because I have shorter arms - especially the mini-van. With this I can get all the way down into the lower corner(s) and clean it well. Soooo much easier now.
